Ahead of the 2023 general election, former Vice President Namadi Sambo has opined that former Senate President and Presidential aspirant Bukola Saraki has the capacity and experience to lead Nigeria.
Sambo made this known during Saraki’s visit to Kaduna State to meet with state leaders and delegates ahead of the PDP’s primaries.
The former Vice President said he has always known that Saraki cared about Kaduna state and the North West of the country when they simultaneously served as Governors.
Nnamdi Sambo listed some of the qualities of Saraki as being a team player, organiser, honest, strong and will deliver as the President of Nigeria if given an opportunity.
He said: “I remember, when I was Governor, he specially gave special attention to Kaduna State. As the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum, sometimes, I felt like his ‘self-appointed Deputy’ — even though the Forum has no deputy. This is because, we had a close working relationship and a great personal relationship”.
“I want you all to know that Saraki is a team player. He is a man who plays with and for the team. I have always known him to be a very honest person who has capacity. As the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum, he formed the Peer Review Mechanism that allowed consultants to go state-by-state to report the development plans and progress of each state to the Governors Forum”.
“Saraki is an organizer. As the Governor of Kwara State, he set up the foundation for commercial agriculture. Today, in Agriculture, the arrangement that he set up in Shonga Farms has become a model that each state in Nigeria is emulating.
“As the Senate President, we all know the success that he brought to this nation. This is why, I trust that if our party and our delegates give Saraki the opportunity, he will further prove what I am saying.
“He is a young man, strong and healthy. Being President is not an easy job. That office needs people like Bukola Saraki”.
